September 18, 2011

Chapter Four
A single light bulb dangles from the ceiling four floors above, illuminating steps of bare wood, splintered and stained with age.

Echos of Loneliness: A Poem

September 15, 2011

Echoes of Loneliness

A moment,
An image,
Reality,
Burned between silver and bromide.
As the layers peel,
An emotion exposed ,
Hearts laid bare.
A moment frozen,
A soul stolen,
Through a pinhole.

“Sex, Lies, and the Classroom” Chapter III: Free Sample ##SampleSunday

September 4, 2011

Chapter Three
James Whitmore’s office is small, just a ten by ten square. The space is reduced by the extraordinary amount of clutter that spills forth from every inch of free space. Baseballs, bats, helmets, and sports memorabilia deck the walls, the tops of bookshelves, the edges of his desk. Piles of books and stacks of [...]

August 28, 2011

Chapter Two
O’Connell grabs a shot of carbonated caffeine from the bottle on his desk, as Tyreshia’s angry echo fades from the room. Scanning the classroom, he notices the students slouched in their desks, those with their heads down, the sideways glances, and the heads bending together in continued conversation.
“Fuck you,” someone whispers.
Another answers, “Shut up, [...]
